Chapter 51 Bonding Individuals
The current situation is a three-way confrontation, whether it is monsters and humans or monsters and monsters, they are all malicious and full of vigilance towards each other.

The knife rotated between Yan Jingxing's fingers, like a fish swimming in the water.The presentation effect is naturally not as flexible as before, but it can already be regarded as a pleasing performance.

After his fighting instinct was activated, his flexible use of the weapon in his hand, which was driven by his arms, gradually imprinted his skilled skills deep in his body; therefore, even in a normal state, Yan Jingxing was still able to gradually master certain skills. He can't do this kind of thing.

And with the use of the ability again and again, the deepening of this brand, sooner or later, Yan Jingxing will be able to maintain the ability of a flying knife master even without activating his instinct.

Others may need to practice hard for more than ten years or decades, but he can achieve "curve overtaking" through superpowers.

Now he is thinking about one thing: when killing the hairless people before, Yan Jingxing first used throwing knives to restrain the patients' movements, and then let the eldest lady use the control of the mind to forcibly pull the hairless people away;
But now, with Xie Yuzhi not around and only five throwing knives in his hands, it is difficult to face a situation surrounded by more than a dozen people at the same time, and it is still possible to restrict everyone's actions without harming their lives. ...

In other words, even if it was to protect himself, he had to learn to be ruthless.

Yan Jingxing sighed silently.

After activating his instinct, he can make the right choice without hesitation.

……

At the same time, the split-headed dog was staring at the patients parasitized by the hairless man, with a pair of animal pupils emitting a fierce light, and the saliva was unconsciously dripping from the white fangs.

It seems that it is really greedy.

However, even though he was at the top of the hairless person's food chain, the head-splitting person still showed a certain degree of restraint and caution at this moment, otherwise the dogs should have jumped on them and gnawed them off one by one.

Could it be because of the quantity?
Just as he was thinking this way, the patients suddenly opened their mouths wide open one by one, their facial expressions became distorted and painful, the veins on their upturned necks bulged, and there was an uncoordinated "ho ho" inhalation sound from their throats.

Because he opened his mouth too hard, Yan Jingxing was sure that he heard the sound of more than one person's jaw dislocating directly.

The next moment, the leech monsters slowly crawled out of the host's mouth, and they fell to the ground and crawled, leaving wet and greasy marks.

These monsters have translucent bodies, all bloated and swollen, with faint bloodshots floating on the surface, it seems that they have "fed and drank enough" in the patient's body.

And after the hairless people left, the patients all fell down in unanimous agreement as if their souls had been sucked out, and all of them fell down at once, like wheat blown by wind and waves.

Why did they suddenly come out?Yan Jingxing was a little puzzled, this was tantamount to exposing his weakness, and it would not be of any benefit to the battle, right?
The split-headed dog didn't miss this opportunity, and took advantage of the pause between the "leeches" getting out of their bodies, and immediately pounced on it viciously

The hairless one looks like an invertebrate that can only crawl slowly on the ground, but in fact, the strong muscles under its skin give this kind of monster a jumping ability beyond imagination.

But these abilities are of course nothing compared to the split-headed dog. Seeing the black dog and rabbit rising and falling, he stepped on one end with his paws and bit the other end with his mouth. The tough muscle of the hairy man bites deeply into the epidermis.

The hairless man writhed and struggled desperately, and a large amount of gray-green unknown tissue fluid burst out from the fat and bloated translucent body.

This picture is both disgusting and terrifying, and it is simply "not suitable for children".

Yan Jingxing thought for a while, he didn't approach the battlefield, he used two small knives to take advantage of the chaos and nailed them to death one by one, leaving three for self-defense.

The split-headed dog was chewing happily, and seeing two more dogs suddenly died, the eyes of the beast looking at Yan Jingxing showed humane complaints, it seemed that it hated someone taking away its prey.

Under the joint attack of one man and one beast, more than ten seconds passed, and the hairless people who were scurrying around in the corridor trying to avoid the attack had lost nearly half of their numbers.

...These monsters came out, is it just to die?

No, it shouldn't be that simple.

Under Yan Jingxing's gaze, the remaining seven leeches took advantage of the "sacrifice" of their companions and successfully hugged them into a ball.

This state is very familiar, because they have witnessed the appearance of worm clusters more than once, which seems to be a certain living habit unique to this group.

At this time, he noticed that after the worm cluster formed, the split-headed dogs stopped attacking.

What's going on here……?
Seeing that it did not move, Yan Jingxing did not move out of caution.

It's still the same reason, since the head splitter is the natural enemy of the hairless one, he should know how to deal with the leech monster, and also know its special ability, so no matter what the dog does, he just needs to do it.

Sure enough, Yan Jingxing quickly noticed that after the worm clusters formed, a large amount of sticky liquid suddenly emerged from the hairless ones—they were already covered with mucus, but the amount secreted at this time was not the same amount at all. level.

The slime that flowed down fell on the ground and formed a small pool of water, which seemed to have a slight corrosive effect, and a faint white smoke came out after contacting the cement floor.

If he approached rashly just now, there is no guarantee that there will be no accidents.

The process of the hairless people secreting a large amount of mucus is extremely short, and quickly wraps the entire insect mass, as if fused into one...

No, not "as if"—

Yan Jingxing frowned deeply.

This strange mucus seems to be equally effective on the hairless ones themselves. The bodies of the leech monsters wrapped in thick mucus began to melt a little bit, losing their original outlines, like plastic heated in a microwave oven.

Immediately afterwards, a larger leech monster was born from the mucus foam.

Its body is more than [-] meters long, and its bloated body almost occupies half of the corridor. It looks much bigger than a split-headed dog. tooth.

Hairless fold crawled forward, his slightly opened mouthparts easily gnawed through the corroded concrete floor, and let out a piercing growl towards the man and beast in front of him.

Yan Jingxing suddenly realized.

It turns out that the huge leech that they saw in the underground palace with the head like an excavator rumbling through the ground was born in this way?
Multiple hairless individuals can be combined to produce even larger individuals... Unexpectedly, they also have this special ability.

Considering that they have just crawled out of the patients' bodies, maybe they can only be used after they have to absorb enough nutrients.

The split-headed dog grinds its paws, even if the size of the prey becomes bigger and bigger than itself, it has no intention of shrinking back.

The two alien life groups have struggled with each other for countless years, and they know each other well.

Just as the two creatures were tensely confronting each other, suddenly—the huge leech spit out a mouthful of mucus, not at the split-headed dog, but in the direction of Yan Jingxing who was watching the excitement not far away.

At the same time, the split-headed dog turned its head violently, jumped onto the vertical wall next to it, and leaped high with its strength. Its teeth and claws were also aimed at Yan Jingxing!
"..."

A large ball of mucus fell on the ground, making a "squeaky" sound; the split-headed dog's attack also failed, but the eyeball of the deformed head was wiped with a knife, and blood spattered.

The split-headed dog let out a shrill howl, and this "quarter" of the eyes was considered blind.

On the other side, the hairless man slid on the ground and hit the wall with his head. The mucus sprayed out fell on the fur of the split-headed dog not far away, causing it to growl again.

Yan Jingxing, who activated his ability and fled to the stairs to escape the attack, held the last two small knives behind his hands, and squatted firmly on the narrow handrail like an acrobat, his eyes were as sharp as a falcon, observing condescendingly situation.

The two monsters were all crowded in the corner.

"The hunter and the prey actually work hand in hand... and they cooperate quite tacitly." He thought to himself, "The intelligence of the split-headed dog itself is very high, but the hairless people in the past would only follow instinctive actions. Could it be that' Combining individuals' even intelligence will grow?"

Putting these things aside for now, since the alien monsters wanted to kill him, of course he was welcome, and he had to find a way to get rid of these two individuals.

Split-headed dogs are easier to deal with than the "combined individuals" of hairless people.The former's body was covered with a thick layer of corrosive mucus, and he might have some headaches when dealing with it while holding a knife; while the latter had been caught by himself in the previous battle, and had already fallen into a disadvantage.

This doesn't mean that split-headed dogs are weaker than combined individuals, it's just a matter of compatibility.

or--

Yan Jingxing slipped and stepped directly on the handrail.

He can also escape.

With less than 3 minutes left, it is really difficult to kill the hairless man and the split-headed dog at the same time, so let's take the two companions and leave quickly.

He himself may not have made the decision to retreat so quickly, but at the moment when his thinking completely followed rational calculation, Yan Jingxing chose to escape without hesitation.

"Wait a moment!"

The two girls were on the next floor, so Yan Jingxing bumped into them very quickly.

Just as he was about to drag them away, Ji Chunzao stopped him.

"Let's wait and see."

"……What's wrong?"

Ji Chunzao hugged Xie Yuzhi's waist with one hand, and with great difficulty helped her to stand up, looking a bit strenuous.Yan Jingxing's eyes fell unconsciously on the young lady's face, seeing that her face was covered with sweat and her slender eyebrows were tightly clustered, as if she had fallen into a deep nightmare.

It was the first time Yan Jingxing saw Miss Xie in such a panic, he walked over in surprise and helped Chunzao support her body.

The girl's body was soft and boneless, as if she had given all her body weight to the people around her.I don't know if it's because of being drenched in sweat and rising body temperature, but Xie Yuzhi's delicate flower-like fragrance was a bit stronger than usual.

Yan Jingxing knew that whether it was a "sacrifice" or a "king", they would lose their attention when they used their abilities, but they had never been so serious before. This only proves...

"Yuzhi is now doing her best to 'mind control'."

Ji Chunzao seemed to understand his thoughts, she said.

"So, let's wait here first."

Yan Jingxing nodded, his eyes never moved away from Xie Yuzhi's face, and he watched her with distressed expressions from time to time, which proved that the eldest lady was using her abilities beyond her capacity.

Why push yourself to this extent?He was a little puzzled.

But even if he doesn't understand, he will still be by her side and support her actions.

Yan Jingxing finished his ability and waited silently.

*
Xie Yuzhi's tentacles of consciousness quickly extended to the upper floor.

In her eyes, she first saw a dozen entangled red and blue light clusters, which were obviously parasitic patients.

Afterwards, the entangled light clusters separated, and the blue light clusters became dim; the red light clusters dispersed, and after quickly disappearing a few, the remaining light clusters suddenly gathered together to form a larger light cluster.

Is this... combined?

Xie Yuzhi was stunned.But she didn't have the experience to pay attention to the hairless one for the time being, because her tentacles of consciousness were entangled with another monster.

The light cluster representing the conscious body of the head splitter is huge and stable, and the outer layer has a solid barrier, and her current consciousness is not strong enough to invade.

This is not beyond expectations.

But if this is the only way, Xie Yuzhi should give up now.

In fact, she soon reached an unusual place:

Next to the head splitter's consciousness, there is a smaller, dimmer light cluster, which seems to be attached to the main consciousness.

That's... the consciousness of a dog!
Xie Yuzhi quickly reacted, because Ji Chunzao had already shared the information in advance: they are also parasitic organisms, and the split-headed ones will not simply eat the host's brain like the hairless ones, but will grow new brains in the host's body .

In other words, the dog's consciousness still remains in the body, and it also has control over the monster's body!

The opportunity was fleeting, and Xie Yuzhi launched "mind control" on the split-headed dog without hesitation.

This process was not smooth, because the dog's consciousness was closely connected with the head splitter, and her consciousness invasion was still met with a tenacious counterattack.But with Xie Yuzhi's gritted teeth efforts, it still tenaciously gradually grasped a part of the control...

At this moment, she suddenly felt that the head splitter's conscious resistance was negligent for a moment, and the control progress immediately increased a bit.

……injured?By the way, Yan Jingxing, and the large hairless ones are all there!
With a thought, Xie Yuzhi quickly conveyed the idea of ​​"attacking the hairless" to the head splitter.

Compared with a tough invasion, this idea itself is in line with the wishes of the headhunters, so there is almost no resistance.

……

On the third floor, a glint of confusion flashed in the pupils of the split-headed dog. It didn't wake up until a large hairless man bound it tightly like a snake and tried to strangle it. The mucus sprayed from its mouth burned wounds. come over.

The split-headed dog felt the pain in its body, and its pupils were instantly flooded with ferocious redness. Its fangs and sharp teeth forcefully bit the hairless man. At the same time, it turned over and trampled the hairless man's head under its feet.

More mucus spewed out, but the split-headed dog, which was covered in white smoke, showed no intention of letting go.No matter how painful the hairless people struggle, the sharp teeth can only penetrate deeper into the body surface; in addition, the thick fur can also alleviate corrosion to a certain extent.

The pain-eating hairless man used his soft body to turn over his head, and the huge mouthparts bit one of the split-headed dog's legs in turn, and at the same time rolled up immediately, trying to tear off the whole leg.

"Ow—!"

"hiss--!"

The monsters rolled and wrestled in the corridor. The concrete corridor was full of potholes and a mess, and their mournful roars echoed throughout the sick building.

The fierce split-headed dog temporarily gained the upper hand, but for the injured it, the big meal in front of it was not so easy to eat.

And with the deepening of the wounds on its body, the red light flickering in its pupils is gradually becoming weaker...

*
After a few minutes.

Downstairs, Xie Yuzhi finally opened her eyes.

"I succeeded..."

The extremely tired expression couldn't hide the excitement in her eyes.

"Let's go!"
